i noticed it but it sounded like a wheel bearing. it had all of the symptoms of a WB i talked with Jeremy on the phone and had him help me out with that one and yatta yatta yatta

its at the body shop right now as we speak and after a little over 2k in damage that insurance is paying for but hey for 2k in damage for my price of $250 im fine with that!

it sucks not having it and having to beg for rides up to school but besides that its going to be nice having a fresh new fender and wheel

so its been awhile since anything but i finally got the car back after a long week and 2 days but the guys at the body shop did a great job. not only did they trim the fender to fit the one piece headlights but they also color matched my wheel since they replaced that as wheel. after 2 days in the snow ive had fun and loving quattro! but heres a picName:  1be5f1ee.jpg
